Watched several of these Brave 7 LE reviews. Yours was the only one to point out the chipset difference between it and the V50X. Shows you're digging deeper into the specs. Thanks.
Thanks Roger! Yeah, I always try to find information about both chipset and image sensor - because they are essential for the video processing. Thanks for the kind words!
hahahahaha true
I love how well informed I always am after these videos. I've been on the lookout for a nice budget action camera so these videos are always awesome. Keep up the great work!
Happy to help! That's why it takes some time until I finish them all, but reading comment like that I know that every second spent on researching is worth it! 🙃👍
Uhhhhhh....
Thanks for the brilliant review and your honest view on the 7LE's shortcomings. Helped me made up my mind on forking out for a budget cam
Glad I could help!
Which one did you decide on?
As always, very nice review. Thanks.
My pleasure!
Thanks for this video now I have ideas about my akaso brave 7
👍
Very in depth review. Thank you ❤️
You are so welcome!
Great review again! I love how you also dive into the chips and what that means.
One thing I personally would be curious about is which action camera's you can also use as a webcam. I know some have this option when you plug it in your PC with an USB cable. Do you think that mostly depends on the chipset? Especially in these times it would be great to use it like that, especially if the quality is any good.
Probably beats any webcam built-in to a laptop or all-in-one PC anyway, I imagine, since they suck ;-)
Hey Guido, this is a very valid point, and unfortunately only a few of these actioncams support the feature at the moment. I think GoPro have recently brought this as an update. I am sure that more and more cam makers will enable such a feature.
If the laptop has a 1080p sensor, it might actually be good for teleconferences because of the smaller pixel density.
great review thanks!! the sound change really surprised me you sounded muffled
yeah...
Thanks for this complete video. Nice footages even with this low cost camera! One more subscriber 😉
Thanks for the sub!
love the review, you need more viewers... respect for editing and how entertaining the review was.
Much appreciated!
Did you buy the camera?
Akaso brave7le
@@mikeaubrey1310 nope, I'll be going with V50 X soon
great review
Thanks mate! Summer is coming, more action cams to come.
Good review. Focus on the processor. I believe brave 7 le is good for secondary if you are a motovlogger. The front screen is good to check if you have a good angle.
Totally agree!
Was waiting for this review from you.. love from India 🇮🇳
I know it took some time... but there suddenly were a lot of actioncams for testing and I wanted each one of them to get the right grade of attention. Next week it's the SJ10 Pro 🤭👍
@@TechMishka wow.. sj10 pro 👌✌️
Great review! Thank you so much for all the helpful information! What SD card are you using ?
Most welcome, Samantha. To be on the safe side - buy a Sandisk Exreme. Most U3 MicroSD cards should be fine.
Fantastic video technically. If I had to find fault, it would be the sound which is not always perfect, but I'm being very critical. You will get better. Image stabilization is key for an action camera. The GoPro hero 10 has gone to another level of winner, so budget might not make it for me. I might just be patient and go with the best. Having said that bull, the price is so good that I might get this akaso to practice and use as a backup for the GoPro. I hate having only one of anything because everything can break and you never want to have nothing in any situation. Thanks for the very complete video. Have fun.
Hey Perry, thanks for the excellent comment. I very much like your idea and have adopted similar practice for myself.
Budget actioncams are getting less and less in the past years, so good to see Akaso maintaining their product line.
This is my first action camera and I’m hoping it will turn out great for what I need it for but for now, this is my start.
Thanks you for your sharing
You are so welcome!
would you recommend this over the gopro hero 7 silver
4:55
Hhhh i was watching, and i said, "Oh god, this is good"
It is funny that it is so rare in a review for someone to show the 100% video size.
This gets u some extra points.
Thank u
Most welcome ♥️ I often include such kind of comparisons.
Hi Tech4All ! Thanks for this detailed review ! It seems you like a little more the V50X. I checked the review too but I would like to know, I plan to use this cam on my Top Case during motorcycle road trip in order to record landscapes during ride. The main parameter which interesting me is the image quality (not especially 4K) I saw comparative videos (3 cam displayed) images have very close quality for a non expert eye ^^' which one would you recommend me for my use please ? Brave 7 LE or V50X ? Thanks in advance ! :)
Take the one with the best price, make sure to record with clean lens in no more than 30FPS. Any of them will be good.
Hi bro can you suggest me a best budget action camera
Wow! That's a great review! It surprised me that despite the IPX7 certification you were actually able to submerge it without any issue! Does it mean AKASO didn't bother to get an higher certification (let's say IP65) despite the camera is able to?
I'm not that familiar with their certifications - but they advertise the camera as being able to handle water well 😇
I'd prefer IPX7 over IP65, as the 7 indicates a higher level of water resistance. IPX8 would be higher still.
And you filmed that video from which camera?
Good camera,I will buy also this one friend, thanks for sharing
Most welcome! Hope your friend will like it!
What happened with camera purchase...akaso?
It's 2022 and i just bought 1. Hopefully it gets delivered nextweek
Fingers crossed! Enjoy having it!
Thanks a lot! I have a question for you sir. What is a good way for the brave 7 le to use the external mic. Can you recommend something?
I'd recommend buying a lavalier microphone and use an external recorder like Zoom H1.
🤔💭. Maybe I can use this for my biking vlogs. Its cheaper and its has decent quality.
Nice review though. Continue what you're doing 😇🍃
Pretty good for biking vlogs!
Great review. I own this camera and I like it. However I can't find any answer to this. Do the silicone sleeves to protect it prevent audio from being recorded??? I am looking at doing this and attaching it to my life vest for my kayaking
Most silicone sleeves have cuts around the mics - so it should be OK. But yeah - if there's something in the way of the mic, it will of course be blocking some sounds.
thx bro, good job
What is your external microphone 🎤?
sir i want to ask that which action camera of akaso is good for making face cam videos
by the way this video was very helpful
Almost all of them are great. The benefit of this one is the selfie-monitor.
Nice review, the issue is the internal mic, hope its support external mic using micro-usb adaptor
I don't think it will, at least not with the first batch of units...
You can actually change mods on the GoPro with buttons as well.
overall for it's price actually I'd say with all what it comes with, it's awesome! even with all it's downsides
If I'd need to buy an action camera now, I'd go with the GoPro still, I have some issues on how the Insta works, and I prefer the GoPro quality over the DJI Osmo, but if my main goal would be to vlog, Osmo is probably better choice.
Which reminds me, rumors say the GoPro 9 will have a front screen as well :-)
Very much agree to what you say. And the GoPro has not too intensive codec compression, making it easier to edit.
Interesting to see what Hero 9 will offer.
What is the external mic recorder you were using in the video with the Akaso Brave 7LE action cam? What is the brand? How do you connect it?
I use lavalier microphone connected to Zoom H1 - and then sync that with the video in post production.
Would you recommend this camera just for pictures? I will be taking videos but mostly just pictures. I'm between this one, the v50x or a fujifilm xp 140
Better use your smartphone for that.
Nice video sir thanks for sharing this video ❤️❤️❤️
So nice of you
Tech4All thank you . Sir I’m new on RUclips. I want to make video for RUclips . I want to buy a camera video . Please can you tell me. Which one I should buy camera video . Good one . Any other model . Please sir
I have a Sony AS50 and its great but thought maybe the Akaso Brave 7 LE would be a step up is this not the case ? Also seen a GoPro Hero 6 Black which is a recon from GoPro for a good price would this be a step up from my Sony or just keep the Sony
Sony action cameras are really good. The Hero 6 will be better in terms of user experience.
Loved it
Me too!
Good day. Do you have any info on the upcoming akaso brave 7? I heard it will come soon. Any idea?
I've seen it on the announcement photo. Will review it of course. Not sure when - prefer to have some nice weather and green colors :D
Здравей Михаил! От камерите с цена и фючърси като тази от видеото,имам предвид Campark V40 ,Crosstour CT9300,CT9900. . .и други от този клас,коя би ми препоръчал за заснемане на риболовни излети.Най-често ще е статично използването и.Благодаря!
Здрасти Коста! Според мен - сред отличните варианти в клас около 100 долара са Akaso V50X и Campark V30.
За малко повечко парички - DJI Osmo Action е страхотна!
@@TechMishka Благодаря!
Regarding under water shooting, With the DJI you have the quick switch button.
You are right, thanks mate.
How to connect microphone on this camera
Tech4all, plz tell me which camera provides best footage between Akaso V50x and Brave 7 Le???
Waiting 4 your reply man 💯🥰
Hey mate - they are comparable. I like the V50X a little more just because I prefer HiSilicon chipsets (the V50X has such inside.)
@@TechMishka Oh i see,, thanks for this information 🥰
I was considering this camera. A lot of the YT vids are just following the hype. Akaso makes it sound like new tech. The old processor undermines that. It's too bad about the stabilization, that was what I wanted. If someone needs basic waterproofing or a front screen, this is probably a good deal. But the camera part seems flawed. Akaso has too many models to be taken seriously. Thank you.
They seem to try to release a lot of options in order to satisfy more people. I also would prefer seeing them focused on less devices with more features.
I have a question. Maybe I missed it, but does this camera have a flash? I want to use it for scuba diving, and I know I will be needing a flash for some of the still photos and possible for the videos as well. Thanks
No most action cameras require a diving rig with a light set up.All found on Amazon
Great greater video and camera
Yeah, the camera is not bad. I was hoping to see more from the chipset.
Does it save an hour of footage or does it break up into a bunch of 8 minute clips? I heard the app stitches them together for you is this true?
There are many apps that can stitch multiple videos into one. And as mentioned in another comment - it is a limitation implied by the Fat32 file system.
Great camera , i snagged one off of amazon , it was on sale for 152.00 canadian...lol The pics look great and 1080p is all i need , could care less about 4k ect.
Totally great deal! You're going to like it a lot, and it's pretty good for 1080p.
@@TechMishka I thought you said 1080 was bad on this camera ruclips.net/video/Fv2lhGMdpE8/видео.html ??????
@@TechMishka I bought one from a Loans shop almost brand new for $40
there sire shows that now the Brave LE has a mic slot, is that so, as I could not find it on their site....that will be helpful, many thanks,...& also which one should I go for Brave LE or the Brave 4 Pro.. i am on budget & break a lot...
They have different revisions... Guess you can ask their support directly
Hi, did you try to put a 256gb card?
I'm interested in filming 8-10 hrs videos. Do you think I can do it with this model? Or with the V50 pro?
Thank you 🙌
hi. which one better for video record use cycling and running. apeman trawo or ???
The Trawo is a great choice, they have a newer model now.
I"m having a terrible time with wind noise using my camera. I've tried mic foam over the mic holes on the camera and nothing. I'm thinking about trying small wind muffs next. Another other suggestions for this problem? Thanks.
Try to get a complete foam case - sometimes helps a lot.
in your opinion which one better?? akaso brave 6 plus or brave 7LE?? which one worth price and performance??
I think I like the Brave 6 Plus better.
Hi. I don't know if you'll answer this, but I have one question. I've never had an action camera and this is my favorite so far. So is it better to buy 7le or 6 plus? Thanks for any answer.
I don't have such a big budget for GoPro. That's why I'm looking for a good alternative.
Hmmm, both are okayish for a starter. Given the fact 7LE is a little newer - I'd go for it myself.
You can check some sencd hand Osmo Action generation 1 cameras - they are really good.
I don't want to dig into it that much anymore, but I'll take a look. Thanks. And just because the 6 plus can probably no longer be bought, I'll go to the 7LE. Thank you very much for your help with the selection. :D
I noticed in the video you started to unscrew the outer protective lens. Does the protective lens unscrew if someone happened to crack it?
You can unscrew and replace it if needed, yes.
@@TechMishka The Brave 7 LE version is solid and the only way to replace it would be to pry the faceplate off and replace it with another one. The new Brave 7 has an unscrewable outer lens like the OSMO Action.
@@irmods so is it like other things in life that can be screwed but not unscrewed?
Can you synchronize 3 cameras together to start recording all at the same time ?
This would be challenging :)
What app to tranfer video from action camera to telefon. Can u show me?
Better download it from Play Store yourself and try it out.
Does the Image Stabilization work with 1080 60 fps?
It does. Not that good though.
I have a later version of this camera -- without the model badging on the front ["Akaso" only] and it also offers an external mic option in Settings.
Oh, nice!
Is that the only way to tell if you have the new or old version? Thanks
@@jasonboyd3619 That and the Date/Version number of the Firmware.
@@penboyasgod6103 Thanks. My local Best buy has one but I believe it's the old version .
Need one to record lectures.
When I saw the prices of the gopros I had a stroke.
This is more than enough.
Quite a lot of tech inside the GoPros. These are a good budget alternative indeed
May I know your external mic brand & where to get it bro?
yeah, Aputure a.lav. No longer available. I think the newer edition is called v.Lav.
yes, for me. because the only afford and available (for starter). but great review 👍
Fair enough!
You can get a refurbished go pro 7 black for 174 in go pro official website.
Or wait for black friday.
Thinking about buying this camera. My fiancé and I are not professionals but we want to become better with action camera. We will be going to Cancun Mexico in January and would love to have one to use for snorkeling and zip lining. We are on a budget. Would this camera be good for those things?
I think it will be a good start, yeah
Can you charge (with a power bank perhaps) while recording?
Yes, this feature is supprted.
One question: How do you hold the SD card when inserting it. Which way does it go into the camera? Thank you.
That I can't remember...
The pins face down and towards the front of the camera.
Trying to find a uv filter or clear lens protector. Any ideas?
Would be rather difficult...
Which do you think is better brave 6 plus or brave 7 le
Brave 6 Plus.
Just purchased mine a couple of days ago.
How to upload video on fb or yt?
Greetings from Manila,Philly
👋😊
Copy the video from the SD card to a phone or computer, then upload to youtube or Facebook. DOne! 😎
@@TechMishka sir... Copy/Paste. But when i clicked the paste button or tried to upload it says. FILE NOT SUPPORTED.
I hope one day you do a tutorial video on how to...😁
Which is better chipset or sensor, iCatch v39 or Hi3559 v200 & sony IMXO78 or sony imx 458?? Please let me know am confused!
The Hi3559 is way better than I catch, but they don's manufacture it anymore as far as I know. As for I afe sensors - imx078 is very, very old
@@TechMishka so imx 458 is good?
Sir, what is best resolution for recording in brave 7 Le?
4K, 30Fps
I have a question what is the max storage memory card capasity that can hold
128GB to be on the safe side.
can you change the video iso settings in this camera?
Yes.
GoPro hero 7 $229, DJI osmo action $249. Better save a little more. What was Akaso thinking about using such old sensor?
Great breakdown, with the chip/sensor info.
So happy you enjoyed it, Stefano. Yeah, the price is a little steep and likely Akaso's plan is to compensate all that with the many accessories;
Now, if the pricing of that is hard to justify, what is left for the SJ10 Pro by SJCAM which is close to $250...
@@TechMishka With the Hero 7 at $229 USD, this one would have been interesting at 130 with better chip and sensor. The GoPro now is more affordable than it was.
What external mic did you use in the Brave 7 LE?
It is the one made by Akaso
helo from greece i jaust bought a external mic from akaso but i cant find the mode of microfone in the setings of camera ,i have the 7 le also ,can you help me@@TechMishka
What mic / audio set up you use
I use a basic lavalier and Zoom H1 recorder.
Anyone know why this is better than the campark v40 or x40??
It is almost the same.
sir what external mic that you use?
I can't remember about this video. Perhaps Aputure A-Lav.
what audio recorder is it using?
You can't with this model.
how to use an external microphone.
thanks
Only option is to use external mic with external recorder.
If I’m not mistaken you can purchase an external mic for this camera on Akaso’s website.
Yeah, I think so.
@@TechMishka No, I was wrong, there is no external mic for the Brave 7 LE.
would this be a good alternative for the hero nine though?
In terms of video quality - far from the Hero.
Where to buy seems like disappeared from Amazon and Ali..
Should be still available on Amazon.
Nice videk very informative :) but I rather have the osmo action
Me too!
How much depth can go underwater with the case?
They say 30m; I wouldn't push it that much though.
Is possible record in vertical mode? for tiktok or instagram?
Yes, but it is designed mostly for horizontal shooting.
Thanks my friend 👍🏻🤝🏽welcome 🤝🏽
❤️
brave 7 le vs hero 5 or hero 6, which one better ?
Hero 6. A lot better.
Thanks bro! They are still selling them on amazon but they list it as having been in their inventory for a little over a year but you made me realize the camera is 15 year old tec. and I wasn't impressed by the footage.
Hello Friend. does this camera have an audible alert when it turns on and off? or does it have none showing that it has turned on or off? thankful.
Yes, it plays a sound when powering on and off.
@@TechMishka obrigado
Wow mine the audio at least comes out your unit really zero audio! They almost had it with this unit should combine brave 6 plus internals to this & release as brave 7 plus
Hahha, yeah. I thought it could be some salt left from the seawater, but doesn't look like it 😕
Where did you get the external microphone? ty
It was shipped together with the camera
I bought mine on amazon, mine did not come with my camera
Is this camera good for diving videos?
it is OK. Not as good as GoPro though.
Can i use external mic?
No, you can't.
Spec H/W same Boldragon b39 & LeadEdge V39 and this 2 model the body same K90 4K 60Fps from aliexpress
I don't think it looks like the K90. And it is true that the specs are nothing impressive.
@@TechMishka I'am agree 7 Le it not an interesting option choice in 2020
At 9:46, Much brighter and better video with low light with EIS off ?
Yes - it has to do with the way EIS works. It utilizes the shutter speed and increases it, so that it can make sure the stabilization is better. If you shut it off, the camera will use lower shutter speeds, which result into more light reaching the sensor. That's a general rule for most action cameras.
can i use this under the rain mounted on my superbike?
Yeah, this should work.
Lumayan terang,bagus LE
👍
Is it a metal housing?
No, it is plastic made.
Akaso has an external lav for the brave 7 le on their website
Yeah, true that
have external mic port ?
No, it doesn't.
@@TechMishka sad !
Am I missing something or is it not possible to change the playback speed?
Not possible.
@@TechMishka I wonder if it was something they just couldn't figure out how to implement, or did they just forget to do it. They were able to do it on the lowest model they have, the EK7000, maybe a different design team on this one.
It's such an odd deficiency on an otherwise good camera.
